School Bus Tracker: RFID School Student Tracking System
A complete solution for schools to streamline student and school bus tracking, prioritize student safety, accountability and communication by combining real-time GPS tracking, RFID Tags to identify and account for student ridership, and the ParentLink App to share live ETA’s and alerts with parents.
- All-In-One school bus GPS tracking system
One unified platform to streamline your fleet operations, gain real-time location data, automate student ridership and communicate ETA’s and alerts to parents
- Student Accountability
Each student scans their ID card when they board and unboard the bus, giving you quick, accurate and automated ridership reports for each student, increasing visibility and safety.
- school bus routing
Optimize your routes and track real-time route performance matched with granular student ridership data
Parents can see real-time bus location, where and when their children board the bus and receive real-time alerts if buses are running late.
School Bus Tracking System
How it works
The school bus GPS tracking system allows the school and parents to gain visibility, safety and control into the GPS location of the school buses along with arrival and departure times at every stop along the route, including how long the bus spent at any stop, pick up and drop off of students and alerting if buses are running late.
Features & Benefits
Real Time School Bus Tracking Software
With our school bus GPS tracking software, you have a real-time view of every angle of your school bus activity including real-time GPS location and ETA’s including arrival and departure times at every stop along the route, how long the bus spent at any stop, alerts if buses are running late, and pick up and drop off of students.
A Multi-Camera System For School Bus Student Visibility & Safety
Our Wireless fleet dash cams systems provide schools with 360-degree visibility into their entire school bus fleet.
The cameras capture every angle of the road ahead including rear and side views and automatically upload footage to quickly determine safe driving.
RFID school ID student Ridership
Choose between Passive or Active RFID cards and assign to every child for immediate log of each student, increasing visibility and allowing you to:
- Track attendance
- Account when and where each student got on and off the bus
- Detect unauthorized student boarding
- Detect duplicate usage of the same ID card.
school bus routing software
Import existing routes or build and optimize your routes with our routing optimization tool.
Enable transportation managers to gain visibility and control over their entire operation, know at all times which students got on each bus and when and know the ETA of every stop.
No more “where’s my bus” calls from parents.
Dedicated Parent portal app available on both iOS & Android reduces inbound calls by automatically sharing real-time bus location and ETAs with parents and alerting them if buses are running late.
Parents can view arrival and departure times at every stop along the route, including how long the bus spent at any stop.

We Offer Multiple school bus tracking Solutions
Mini IoT RFID Tags
- Mini RFID tags offer a no-touch log of pick up /drop off of students - no action is required by the student.
- Also provides: GPS driver behavior, engine diagnostics and dashcams
- Also provides: School Bus Tracker App For Parents: ParentLink
Passive RFID Student ID card
- Action is required by students - student scans his RFID card on the RFID reader upon boarding the bus.
- Also provides: GPS driver behavior, engine diagnostics and dashcams
- Also provides: Also provides: School Bus Tracker App For Parents: ParentLink
- A tablet with a card reader is installed on each bus and every student is equipped with a passive RFID card that is also the student ID card.
- As the students board the bus, they scan their RFID card on the card reader providing visual validation for the driver that that student is assigned to the bus. The student data is stored in the DriverLink App together with the pick-up location and student ID data. Once the bus starts moving the stored data is sent to Fleet.Net together with GPS tracking data.
